Jovana Zafirovic (Serbia), Master’s programme in Comparative Social Research 

I am really glad that I decided to study at HSE. The University provided me with the opportunity to gain a lot of knowledge but also to get familiar with different cultures and people, especially Russian. The Comparative Social Research programme enables you to learn all the necessary skills to become an experienced social researcher. Most of the courses are really practical and the big part of the programme is the internship in Tilburg University, the Netherlands, which I am currently finishing.

 

María José Benítez Hidalgo (Ecuador), Master’s programme in Political Analysis and Public Policy 

The atmosphere at HSE makes me feel that the world is not as big as we might think. My classroom is already an example of how people from completely different cultures can interact and learn by respecting each other’s diversity and believing in dialogue. This is exactly what we need for building up tolerance nowadays. This is the most amazing thing of being part of HSE - to have found a family of colleagues from all over the world who at the same time became my best teachers. They make me believe that we, as a new generation of policy makers and human rights  defenders, will make the dream of building a more  aware, fair, equal and inclusive world possible.

 

Love Ugonna Umesi (Nigeria), graduate of Master’s in Population and Development 

As I searched through the pages of the internet, I stumbled on the Population and Development programme of Higher School of Economics. I liked that it cut across several disciplines. The combination of courses in this programme gives one an enhanced knowledge of the interrelation between economics and development.I am quite satisfied with the education I received because it equipped me with theoretical and practical knowledge. The programme taught me to analyse demographic data and use it in monitoring and evaluating development programmes. I was impressed by the level of knowledge our professors have. It was impressive how they were able to explain complex matters to us in a very simple way. The programme was quite challenging, yet rewarding.
